In this paper we study the behavior of a general optimization model for reducing the power consumption of core networks employing energy-aware network equipment. Specifically, we assess how the energy profiles of the devices affect the outcome of the optimization model and hence determine the general power saving policy. The computational analysis performed on several real topologies shows that the widespread traffic consolidation strategy does not always provide the best results. In fact, for devices presenting a cubic (convex in general) energy profile, the highest energy savings are achieved by spreading the traffic on the network. |
